hey guys i got some plugs and changed my spark plugs yesterday , I was told by mechanic to run BKR7E and regap them at around 0.6mm gap . Now it idles great and doesnt hunt , drives real smooth but when i get it a hit it sounds terrible like a spark breakdown sound around 6,0000 and above . Im running fully built engine with Splitfires and i have never had this issue but then again i have never run that gap or plug before , (always BCPR7ES @ 0.8MM) also now im noticing my 555cc injectors reach 100% without really any load/boost ?

what have i done to my car ? can anyone help me

are you running 555cc and Z32 with an untuned PowerFC?

I'm assuming this from your latest thread about idle problems.

If so, it's makes perfect sense why your injectors are smashing 100% and your car is misfiring.

if the injectors are randomly hitting 100% under light load then check your afm wiring. i had a similar problem with the same setup, a dodgy afm wire was randomly earthing out and sending the pfc 5.1v when just cruising along

Yeh it could have that I'll look into it ? Do I just Check all wires are ok and not touching or do I have to pull apart and re solder ? Btw my car is makin 288rwkw and never maxed out past 75% until now . Fixed issue with plugs .. But still 100% duty with no splitterin . Can a slipping clutch cause faulty readings?

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
